A group, the Asiwaju Grassroots Foundation (AGF), has joined those calling for the reinstatement of the suspended Appeal Court President, Justice Isa Ayo Salami, as recommended by the National Judicial Council (NJC).

It described Salami's predicament as a political agenda of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) cabal dissatisfied with his uprightness at the bench.

The National coordinator of the group, Akanbi Afonja, spoke with reporters yesterday in Ilorin after the inauguration of its state branch.

He said AGF is a coordinating body of young democratic loyalists of the national leader of the Action Congress of Nigeria (ACN) across the world.

His words: "Our group's stand has been that of our leader's, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu. People know that Salami has not done anything wrong.  His suspension is nothing but a political agenda. They did that because his judgments did not favour them. Salami should be reinstated.

"We are expecting much from President Goodluck Jonathan. When he was campaigning, his mantra was transformation, but now none of the transformation agenda has been executed."
